lagilman: coffee or die (stop that)

"Former Rep. Mark Foley was molested as a teenager between the ages of 13 and 15 by a clergyman, his lawyer says."

Y'know? Stop making excuses, stop checking into booze rehab like it's some one-crime-fits-all whitewash, and take some gods-be-damned responsibility. I DON'T CARE what happened to you -- you're the adult, you're the one who was co-chairman of the House's Missing and Exploited Children Caucus, for pity's sake! Did you ever think that maybe this wasn't such a smart idea, if you were attracted to barely-pubescent teens? Did you THINK, period?

(ironically, Mr. Foley was a big supporter of President Clinton’s impeachment. You can't make this shit up.)

I don't care if he's gay, any more than I cared that former NJ governor Jim McGreevy is gay -- Jim should have been thrown out for corruption, not homosexuality, and Foley should be drummed out of all his offices for being a predator, not for being gay.


And, of course, the President is saying he knew nothing about any of this. That's probably the only thing Bush has said recently that I believe...

I just want to go down to D.C. and bitchslap everyone with a Congressional parking space.
